Tim Hawkins The Government Can

[@Ryoten27]

It's 2024, and this song is more relevant than ever before.

[@georgiapatriot4575]

Sad, funny, and true--all at the same time.

[@MaureenMikalsen-mx8cn]

He. Summed it all up. In one. Song. Perfectly

[@lisaquigley-moon9583]

12 years ago. Omg. It's not even a joke anymore

[@relytunder]

watch "Demolition Man" and pay attention

[@JadedForAlways]

It was never and has never been just a joke

[@jonathanrichwine1996]

When was it a joke?

[@ZaneSilver-f6v]

No Its worse

[@Arko.84]

Sadly

[@magz4074]

As a canadian, damn this is extremely accurate.

[@scuba705]

That sums up the US taxation system in 3 minutes. Well done

[@Mr7141983]

Good to see good humans singing the true evil of government.

[@reluke2670]

One of the best representations of the Government I have ever heard

[@robertmurray7678]

Great stuff - Hawkins is better than Dawkins !!!

[@joanallen5345]

Just heard this today…2/22/24… this is STILL PERTINENT TODAY!!!! ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!! ❤️

[@ironmikekendall2506]

That was perfect. Thank you so much 😀

[@tombrady4]

🔥 this aged superbly!!

[@ppmnox]

my son sent this to me and, by god, I've now shared it with ~ 20 different people/groups. this deserves much much play

[@philipzhu5194]

his official MV has 8M plays

[@califamob]

2023 still a slapper

[@Enid2Sacramento]

A dozen years later it's more relevant than ever...

[@bassybgaming3388]

Twelve years later, and this makes me feel good too

[@livfreeordi]

Never heard of this guy! He’s incredible!

[@havoc4097]

What a beast... that was awesome.

[@Rubix_Cub3d]

Still listening in 2024. Love how “Important people” expect me to not ask questions.

[@together-forever]

He definitely deserves a standing ovation ❤️

[@SalvagedCowboy]

You have to give 1/3 of your income that you make from working, and the 2/3 you take home is further taxed for buying necessities and paying bills.

[@stevenshayes490]

OUTSTANDING

[@awhrlwnd]

Why, why , why am I just learning about this guy???!!! 😅

[@danvillefieldsgaming5017]

Cuz he's fucking funny XD

[@GregVail]

DAMN STRAIGHT

[@maryml5584]

Wow.... 11yrs ago. Still true today.

[@pilindriqui]

One of Tim Hawkin's best!

[@bunju8990]

Everyone talking about the message and not his performance. It was spot on 😂

[@CaseyCampbell17]

It's cool how he was laughing at certain lyrics.

[@jeanplaysmc6216]

this was awesome and thats an understatement

[@thewin9459]

He's a schmoovin, groovin Patriot.

[@paulvlietstra2493]

Right on the mark.

[@maddielamont5209]

If only this song was on Itunes.

[@slidingtitan734]

This was shared to me today. Such real shit 💯

[@cutegirl9635]

Excellent comedy

[@superpear64]

Never before have I been so offended by something that I 100% agree with.

[@superpear64]

Also trust me this is even more real in Canada.

[@corylittrell2109]

Pure genius

[@cordeliadaniels7737]

He is priceless ! 💝💝😁😁

[@aybee63]

Clever production. Wonder who arranged, recorded and produced it? So apt for what's been going on these past several decades!

[@josephbrown8662]

Le monde se RÉVEIL ....Goute a goute ..jusquau grand Déluge !

[@neenernener]

Oliver Anthony ain't got nothin' on Tim! 🤣🙏🕊❤🇺🇸

[@T4nkcommander]

Both legends in their own right

[@weslund9306]

This is so great.

[@SharonLaPlace]

Hilarious!! Love it!!

[@joeysweet9045]

Boy 12yrs ago and actually true then and even worse now! If you want a free ride just cross the border to Mexico and try to sneak back into the USA and tell the border control officer no comprenda amigo then you get a house or apartment food stamps an iPhone everything free!!!

[@pilula65]

Lol! You've got a point!

[@sonnykim83]

全国の中学校の英語の授業で教えるべき歌！

[@AverageJoevlogs4298]

Don’t thrown stones when you live a glass house china ain’t better at all At least we aren’t communist

[@antoinettekerins9739]

So funny 😂

[@bunmom316]

This should be kamala's campaign song lol

[@Kini_the_Fox]

2023, still unfathomably relevant

[@ESCAGEDOWOODWORKING]

Dec 2024, Scarier than drones, because the gov can.

[@helderperez1474]

brilliant

[@LanceD188]

Damn, He is really channeling Sammy Davis Jr.!!

[@kvdp9543]

His timing is great - even though he came in about a decade early.

[@gregorytoews8316]

Not just 12 years ago. In 1908 GK Chesterton wrote; "Fires will be kindled to testify that two and two make four. Swords will be drawn to prove that leaves are green in summer." A societal problem centuries in the making, may take centuries to solve.

[@ericlarsen5764]

I just always imagine a bunch of whoos in whooville singing this and it makes it so much greater 😅

[@colwilpro]

No lies detected.

[@DontcareBear2049]

Ahead of his time. I want an extended version.

[@kvdp9543]

How has that got less than 1000 likes?

[@NickC1966]

Prophesy.

[@hanzschmidt3234]

He should do a followup song: "Who owns the Government".

[@Fitingbros101]

bravo!

[@jakedoe1302]

Omg he saw in to the Future

[@lisadeluca5714]

Perfect-

[@harborbreezecheshirekid1236]

Lol that's funny 😅

[@jessicalambert3634]

This is funny.

[@christopherklinger497]

THE GOVERNMENT CAN

[@david3900snake]

Its sad that this song is 10 years old and holds to much weight.. only because its true..

[@donlaguilles3525]

SHARe this video to the proponents of Prop 1 in California.

[@jenni5104]

Damn..This is more true now than ever..

[@Nimbus95]

This aged like most lines from It's a Wonderful Life (1946) i.e. not at all.

[@Jake-ob4yw]

So sorry to hear about his suicide 😢

[@alexbaker3958]

Fuck you. For anyone curious he is still alive. What do you get out of this

[@KylieSimon-md3cs]

@docrich 🤣🤣🤣

[@smruiz70]

OMGoodness!!! This is so me!!(Not with moves like that of course!Ha!) And that’s my husband, "I’m rushing home!…"😂

[@BMC_self-invent]

Justin Trudeau's theme song

[@thestonedlizard9597]

Yes, definitely Mr Castros theme

[@BigRick324]

This is so funny but so freaking true

[@zquark1]

2023: When do 36 FBI agents in tactical gear and armed with M-4s bust down Tim's door and arrest him for insurrection? Oh, and with a tipped off CNN filming it all.

[@josephbelisle5792]

Yes but there are hundreds of thousands of incredible people who work in government day in and day out who keep our world running. It would be more accurate referring to Congress, POTUS and SCOTUS. They are the ones who ,ake these problems. Context is all I ask.

[@kvdp9543]

I guess you work in government...

[@CARLOSPAREDES-nq1fn]

Meanwhile sending billions to Ukraine!!! I don’t mind helping but where does the line get drawn???

[@kvdp9543]

Wherever the people of the world draw it.

[@kvdp9543]

...and then some

[@wiecek13]

This didn't age at all

[@Bones09990]

I'd argue that it unfortunately aged perfectly

[@BigRick324]

​@@Bones09990exactly

[@drawingdude819]

The theme song for any democrat since JFK:
